Several of the volume’s essays focus on fruitful new process research methods, such as eye tracking and keystroke logging that have arisen to supplement the use of think-aloud protocols. Another set of contributions investigates how some central theories, concepts, and methods from our sister disciplines of psycholinguistics, cognitive psychology, and neuroscience can inform our understanding of translation processes and their development in novices and experts. Yet another set of essays argues that methodological innovation and integration with the cognitive sciences can lead to more robust research designs and theoretical frameworks to explain the intricacies of cognitive processing during translation and interpreting. Thus, this timely volume actively demonstrates that a new theoretical and methodological consensus in cognitive translation studies is emerging, promising to greatly improve the quality, verifiability, and generalizability of translation process research.

Using a combination of eye tracking and keyboard logging technologies, user activity data on reading and writing processes in translation were collected and analyzed, focusing on pre-translation, visual attention on source and target text, transitions between reading and production mode, eye-key span, and pauses. Analysis of our data suggests a distinction between integrated and sequential coordination, with the former characterizing professional performance and the latter student performance. Although there are still interruptions in the processing data stream (i.e., pauses) which are difficult to explain, comprehensive eye tracking data enables us to account more precisely for these and other indicators of cognitive processing in translation. 5 28 2010 7 6 2010 41 62 10.1075/ata.xv.04dra https://benjamins.com/catalog/ata.15.04dra https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1075/ata.xv.04dra/html
